Prayer in Everyday Life: Living God’s Presence in Ordinary Spaces
Week 5
Many of us learned prayer as something that needs the right conditions: a quiet room, a settled mind, and no interruptions. When life refuses to cooperate, deadlines pile up, children need attention, energy runs low—prayer is often the first thing to slip away. Not because we don’t value it, but because it feels like one more thing competing for space in already full days.
Living and Working from a Settled Heart
Week 4
Every morning, I have this desire: to start the day in stillness, calmness, alone with God, receiving His goodness. I crave that refreshing stillness with God, soaking in His goodness like a cool drink after a long day. But honestly? The clock stares me down, and my brain races: "Hurry up and meditate so I can get to work!" We laugh about it, but it's real. In our high-octane world, we treat stillness like a checkbox.
From Rest to a Renewed Mind: How God’s Word Shapes Our Work
Week 3

Intentional stillness sustains our daily calling and gives direction to the choices we make each day.

For many of us, the quiet of the holidays feels distant. And yet, this is often the moment when we most need to pause.
Boat, Seed and Storm - What Mark 4 teaches us about living out our faith at work
Opening the Year - Week 1
This morning I was reading Mark, chapter 4. It is a dense and layered passage. Much could be explored here, but three words stood out clearly to me: boat, seed, and storm.
I could not help connecting this chapter with this particular season of the year. 2026 has begun. Plans have been drafted, goals defined, decisions made. The holiday greetings are behind us, and routine has returned. The question that remains is both simple and uncomfortable: where does Christ truly fit into this new cycle?
